The Gambia Polyethylene Film Market could see a tapering of growth rates over 2025 to 2029. Although the growth rate starts strong at 17.47% in 2025, it steadily loses momentum, ending at 13.84% by 2029.
By 2027, the Polyethylene Film market in Gambia is anticipated to reach a growth rate of 16.01%, as part of an increasingly competitive Africa region, where Egypt remains at the forefront, supported by South Africa, Ethiopia, Algeria and Nigeria, driving innovations and market adoption across sectors.
The polyethylene film market in Gambia is driven by its applications in packaging, agriculture, and construction. Lightweight, durable, and recyclable films meet the demand for efficient and eco-friendly materials.
The demand for polyethylene film in packaging, agriculture, and industrial applications is a major driver in Gambia. Polyethylene films are favored for their durability, moisture resistance, and cost-effectiveness, making them widely used for food packaging, agricultural covers, and protective films.
The polyethylene film market encounters difficulties related to environmental regulations on plastic usage, increasing the need for sustainable alternatives. High import costs and limited domestic manufacturing further strain the market, coupled with a lack of recycling systems to manage polyethylene waste effectively.
The Gambia government can support the polyethylene film market by promoting its use in packaging, agriculture, and construction. Polyethylene films are essential for packaging consumer goods, providing protection and extending shelf life. Policies could focus on encouraging local production and reducing import dependence, while promoting the recycling and sustainable use of polyethylene films. By fostering innovation in the use of polyethylene films for agricultural applications, such as greenhouse covers, and for eco-friendly packaging solutions, the government can stimulate growth in this market while addressing environmental concerns.
